Spacemilk is leading a new wave of innovation with its flagship protein supplement, Spacemilk Protein Powder, formulated from non-GMO, allergen-free, vegan-friendly fermented baker’s yeast, as opposed to your standard whey, casein, or milk. It features a complete amino acid profile for reliable muscle recovery and growth, and it squeezes a less-than-usual 20g of protein into each of its moderate 31g servings.
At the core of Spacemilk is ProteVin, a protein isolate from baker’s yeast that yields a high PDCAAS (protein digestibility) score of 1.00 and a DIAAS (EAA absorption) of 121, which is actually greater than the legendary whey. As mentioned, the supplement has a full spectrum of essential amino acids, a similar balance to that of whey, including 14.85g of EAAs per serving, and a fair amount of that is BCAAs at 6.65g.
The ProteVin-powered Spacemilk Protein Powder checks off all of the boxes if you’re after an alternative to the ever-present whey protein. It has great digestibility and amino acid profile, although it is worth noting it’s not as lean. That 20g of protein comes alongside 6g of carbohydrates, 2g of that added sugar, 3.5g of fat, and a calorie count of 130. That may not seem too bad but if you scale it up to match the more common 25g of protein, you’re looking at 7.5g of carbs, 4.3g of fat, and a total of 162 calories.
We don’t often see innovation in the protein powder category, in fact, it’s one of the most plain place in the sports nutrition industry. That has changed in recent years with major developments and trends like clear protein, ready-to-drink protein, and collaborations. You can buy and try Spacemilk straight through its online store at Chocolate and Vanilla flavors and Neutral (leaner macros) at a premium $44.99 per bag.
